@SpeakerMikeJohnson & 218 @GOPHouseRepubs just passed a $Trillion Defense Budget to cover @realdonaldtrump's piss poor decision to deploy National Guard Troops & Navy Carrier Group to the Caribbean Sea that will surely shut down the government upon debate when they open for session 6 Jan 2026 ? 🤬

Donald John Trump & his Press Secretary Karoline Levitt crying & whining about 6 Military Veterans reminding Soldiers of their obligation not to follow "illegal orders" per UCMJ !! Neither Donald nor Karoline knows the difference between the words "legal & illegal" or about what the UCMJ requires? 🤬

The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2021 was intended to restore voting protections after Shelby v. Holder gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Immediately, states began making it harder to vote with voter ID laws, fewer polling places in cities, and illegally gerrymandered maps.

Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban.
Today, I along with Rep. Gerry Connolly, Rep. Summer Lee, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley sent ANOTHER letter calling on
Texas to explain why it won't release maternal mortality data from the past 2 years after Dobbs.

We arrive at a dreadful place, moving here disastrously all along. Trump has a lineage; it has gifted itself supremacy, indulged in all manner of sin, and forcefully kept the lid on reflection and repair. It’s well worth reading @sifill.bsky.social’s piece on the confrontations and challenges ahead.

must-read from @sifill.bsky.social: "The dream of the historic inauguration so many of us imagined today would have truly been a dream. But dreams are for those who have the luxury of sound sleep. The work of democracy building is fueled by snatches of rest and oblivion. We must be ever watchful."
